sedcd this season by the regular old
fashioned rcticulcs that our grand
mothers used to delight in. And. in
deed. this fashion will certainly prove
charming one in many ways A
fashionable woman nowadays is
obliged to take so many indispensable
articles about with her that It is abso- d.
lutcly necessary to have some con-
vcnicnt receptacle in which to stow
them so that thew shall be near at
hand. Ordinary dress pockets are be-
coming almost obsolete. principally
because modistcs will persist in put
ting them in such out-of -.he.way
places that it Is impossible to gain ac-

and they may contain any thing from

design in enamel bonbon boxes. At
any rate, every woman of taste will
admit that from IN aesthetic point OF

FORGIVENESS.

Lone i'm n field daisy raised her head,
And. knowing that the sun above her shed
His warmth and light for her sweet sake alone.
She sudden scorncd his love, and, holder
grown,
Smiled softly on wooing, vagiant breeze,
The sun 10 tease.
To teach her then the value OF his grace
The sun. in pride and anger hid his face.
The flower felt the change in wild amaze,
And longcd in sorrow for her lover gaze;
A passing rain.drop fell with sudden freak
Uplu her cheek
The sun, soon firing OF his lOrdly mood,
Peepcd out TO see IL yet her scorn she rucd;
He saw the tcar-he watched the wooinS winu
Float sad away and leave the flower unkind'
And heard with gladdcn'd heart her voice en-
treat
His pardon sweet.
But still TO prove her quick repentance true, =
He stcclcd his heart with resolution new
And sank behind the world without one sign,
And left her there in cold and dark To pine;
Though thought he often OF the sweet pale race
Refused his grace.
Up with the day he rose his love 10 greet,
And lay his love and pardon ut her feet.
But, ah! No tender face returned his smile
With welcoming love, and sweet reproach the
while.
Naught, save one leaf the faithful zchpyr gave
To mark her grave.

One day. after listening patiently TO
q certain court wit who had told
most extraordinary yarn made out OF
whole cloth, the King remarked Quot
ly: Il can easily believe that story,
because have had more curious OK
pericncc myself o. one occasion. I
had been out hunting all day long aud
was returning homo ompty-handed.
when u thrush flew up within range OF
my gun. and, thinking 1t better than
nothing. blazed away at it, and. to
my great establishment, brought down
not only tho thrush but n good-sized
hawk. just at tho moment when
pulled the trigger, the hawk. which
was also out hunting, had swoopcd
down upon the thrush. and In con-
sequence the one shot had struck both
birds. But that was not all The re-
port Of the gun had scared up rabbit.
and as luck would have il, the hawk
fell directly on Comics back. and,
being only wounded. Immediately at
tackled the poor beast so hcrccly that
he, suffering under the cruel claws,
began to dig up the earth franticaily
with his paws. and presently uncov-
cred two immense trufflcs. So. you

hawk to stuff, 4 thrush to broil. nice
rabbit to stew, and two splendid

is fond OF telling how, in the CAM
paigns of 1866. he had three buttons
shot from his coat by riflc-balls, AID
how he once owned horse who could
jump across ditch more than thirty
feet wide; and again, how. when
boy. his gymnastic teacher taught him
10 climb over n wall one hundred feet
high without using rope or any tlihg
of the sort. Whenever the King sees
fit to amusc himself in this way. the
courticrs are on pins and needles. for
he requires each one OF them to listen
to whatever he may say with the ut
most seriousness. Another habit
which often causes ANNOYANCE
and embarrassment is the Kings
way of taking fancy TO any
little novelty which he may sec in the
hands of any of his courtiors. 1t may

In cottage building much can be need

yet add very little to the real value Of

nothing to offend the eye in the external
arrangement and ornamentation, while
the inside arrangement is both commodi-
Gus and comfortable. The only objec-

to the small amount of porch or veranda

My little girl Sadie is five years old.
She is very happy and busy getting .
Christmas present ready for her papa.
But do not believe that one of the little
boys or girls that read this, can guess
what it is going to be. So will have to
tell you. She is going to surprise him
by having learned to read! She began
twelve weeks ago. And just think! Her
papa don't know that she can read one
single word! One day he came right in
to the nursery when Sadie was reading
her lesson! o how quick she stopped.
and stuck the book under her apronl
Her little face got as red as q rose.
"Why, Sadiep he said, what is your
face so flushed for? Then he said to
me, Mamma, I'm afraid you've got the
room too hot"
So opened the door, and began
quickly to talk about something else, to
make him forget about Sadie. In few
minutes he went out again. Iguess that
was the only time Sadie was ever glad to
have her papa go away. She was so
afraid he saw the book, that she could
hardly keep from crying. But 1 told
her was almost sure he did not, and
she was happy again.
She says when Christmas comes she is
going to wrap her Reader in nice piece
of paper, and write on it, "Sadie's pres
ent to papa" and tie it to the tree.
He'll think it's mistake when he takes
the paper off" she says, but I'll say,
please give the book to me. papa and
then I'll just open it and read, and read,
